We also have a desire to add other items to the toolbar, but in your question, are you saying you want to just go to another workspace (could do via the dropdown on the right) or you want to go to a specific workspace all the time with a button?

For example, when end users(customers) login to Numara, they default to our IT Workspace(Service Desk). We have another, specific service that requires a different workspace/workflow. I'd like the end user to not have to go up to the right hand corner and select the dropdown to change workspaces.

I'd call the button, "Adjustments" - a payroll service we offer that is performed by a differnet team in a deifferent workspace. By clicking on this button, it would lanch the Adjustment form from that other workspace that i have built with public perms etc.

we want this to avoid the end users have to click numerous times to navigate through mulitple workspaces. I know we could use the Service Catalog for this, but we are not ready to deploy this feature yet.

Yes and No, It depends on Users role in each workspaces. If you are a Customer User in the current workspace and in the workspace you are linking to then Yes, same for Agent. However if you are an Agent in the current workspace and a Customer in workspace you are linking to, or vice versa, then No.

This "glitch" was fixed in v10. Every time you log into FP you get a session id which is stored in the MRP variable and pre v10 your MRP would remain the same no matter your role in each workspace and you could create exactly what your looking for easily. Starting in v10 you are given an Agent MRP or a Customer MRP depending on your role in the workspace, they add a "0" to the beginning your agent MRP to make it a Customer MRP.

I have tried to add the "0" to make it work but when you switch workspaces and roles you reauthorize to get the new MRP, but if I can ever figure it out I'll let you know.

I tried this and the button appears under the "Ticket Information" section and it is called obviously, "Create New Ticket".

Through Firebug, i am getting an error:

"openTicket is not defined"

Also, is there a way to palce this button on the Toolbar insted on in the ticket page? So in essence, i'd have the "New Request/Ticket" button that is native to the workspace the user has signed in to by default and then another button that appears on the Toolbar that does exactly what you provide in the javascript?

You will need to place the second set of code in a seperate field header, I reccomend the attachments field header, and ensure you have the ENABLED check box checked. I did forget one thing in the code above, here is the correction:

I now do indeed get a new window that opens up but it asking for me to login again. I attempted to login and it just took me back to the initial workspace again. We use LDAP auth.

Make sure to let your administrator know the time and date that the error occurred, what actions you performed prior to the error, and all details listed on this error page.

I know there was a thread in the yahoogroup after v9.5 or 10 was releasedwhere a user figured out how to add options to the toolbar and I followed thetutorial successfully but it is VERY VERY involved and upgrading would breakit. So even though it is possible and cool it's not really practice, itwould be cool to see this added as a feature in a future version if possible.

Not sure about the LDAP auth, I am using Web Auth and it worksperfectly. If you are using LDAP why not switch to Web Auth so you don'thave to worry about typing in passwords?

Do me a favor post the URL of the Ticket Page for the workspace a user wouldbe in, and then also post the URL of the ticket page of the Ticket Page youwant to be able to link to. Please do this as the same user in the samesession so I can make sure the URL in the code is set up correctly.
